How to Be Anonymous on Social Media


Using a pseudonym on social media can be an incredibly valuable way to reclaim your privacy online. In an age where digital footprints last forever, the ability to separate your online identity from your real-world persona is more important than ever.

Maybe you're concerned about protecting yourself from online mobs that might target your job, your family, or your personal reputation. Maybe you don't want everything you say online to be permanently linked to your real name. Perhaps you have multiple interests or roles in life (professional, personal, creative) and want to maintain separate identities for each.

Maybe you simply value your privacy. Having a pseudonymous account can be liberating. It allows you the freedom to explore new ideas, revise your beliefs, and reinvent yourself without every past opinion you’ve ever expressed being etched in stone and forever tied to you.

But setting up a pseudonymous account on social media isn’t always straightforward. Your approach will depend heavily on the platform you're using. It will also depend on your threat model, which you can think of as whom you’re trying to hide your identity from, how private you need to be, and what’s at stake.

‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing


The car came to rest more than 70 metres away, on the opposite side of the road, leaving a trail of wreckage. According to witnesses, the Model S burst into flames while still airborne. Several passersby tried to open the doors and rescue the driver, but they couldn’t unlock the car. When they heard explosions and saw flames through the windows, they retreated. Even the firefighters, who arrived 20 minutes later, could do nothing but watch the Tesla burn.

At that moment, Rita Meier was unaware of the crash. She tried calling her husband, but he didn’t pick up. When he still hadn’t returned her call hours later – highly unusual for this devoted father – she attempted to track his car using Tesla’s app. It no longer worked. By the time police officers rang her doorbell late that night, Meier was already bracing for the worst.

Tesla tried to do it all at once instead of perfecting the electric tech first and then incrementally adding on advances. They also made change for change’s sake. There’s absolutely no reason mechanical door locks could not have been engineered to work on this car as the default method of opening and closing the door. It’s killing people.

Also, the fact that they removed Lidar sensors and just base their self driving on cameras is plainly stupid.


The “Magabundance” Agenda Is Creating Strange Bedfellows


Supply-side progressivism is forging unexpected alliances between populist Democrats, business-friendly centrists, and MAGA Republicans around militarized growth. The result is a post-neoliberal politics that accommodates authoritarian populism.

Musk doubles down on creating new party after poll says nearly half of Americans would support it: ‘Encouraging’


According to a new poll, 57% of male Republicans say they are likely to support Elon Musk's "America Party"

Almost half of voters said they are likely to support a new political party proposed by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, according to fresh polling.

A Quantus Insights survey released Wednesday found that 40% of voters said they would be likely to back Musk's "America Party," which aims to serve voters disillusioned with both Republicans and Democrats. Musk shared the poll's results on X, calling the results "Encouraging."

Musk first pitched a new political party in early June after he clashed with Donald Trump over the GOP's multi-trillion-dollar tax and spending bill.

What's actually happening?


I've been lurking on r/Conservative to try and figure out why they back Trump so hard, call it research.

They say that prices have gone down in stores; I have not seen that, things have remained the same or gotten more expensive in my experience.

Gas prices have remained...the same, I haven't noticed a difference.

I've noticed that companies that perform services are now using Tarrifs to quote insane prices wether or not they were actually affected by it.

I know the main reason is immigrants, the absolutely terrible things we're doing to them gets thier rocks off. But if they're so adamant about prices going down and the economy doing well they'd have to be experiencing that themselves? They wouldn't be saying that so confidently to each other in an echo chamber unless it was happening.

So where the fuck are prices going down at?

I guess my question is what is actually happening? I want a news source thats going to be honest and not exaggerate for rage bait. Because I now don't trust either sides news.

This is coming from a socialist, not a plant to make you question things. I'm genuinely curious. And I think I'd just get banned if I asked r/Conservative itself.

I moved somewhere I can leave the car at home for most trips and it's amazing. I get a day pass for the train and I dont have to worry about where I parked. I don't have to worry if I'll have a place to park. And my wife and I can decide when to go home separately if one has more energy than the other. Sure I need to be aware of when the trains slow down, but it really is freeing
in reply to captainlezbian

I would love to be able to just take the bus to work. Even that would be great. Instead I have to drive and deal with traffic. I could be browsing lemmy or checking my schedule for the day, or taking a damn nap. But no, I'm "free" to take literally the only transportation option I have: my car. Walk? Nope, way too far. Ride the bike? If you like unprotected bike infrastructure and people passing you at 60mph, sure. Take the bus? Sure, just drive 10 minutes to the closest stop and take two different buses to get there on time.

God forbid we spend money on infrastructure that benefits us all. No no, let's build asphalt oceans so we can ply the open road with our Ford F-9000 Pedestrian Pulverizer Special Edition with the CUMmins My Ass v8 9.0 liter Diesel. Because you wouldn't want anything fuel efficient, then you can't bitch and whine about gas prices of course.

But it's cool, I guess. It's not like we're slowly cooking the planet with our shit box cars and stupid obsession with rugged individualism.



Tone-deaf Xbox executive urges laid off employees to talk to Copilot for emotional support


Matt Turnbull, an Executive Producer at Xbox Game Studios Publishing, recently made a LinkedIn post, emphasizing that he'd be "remiss in not trying to offer the best advice" he could to laid-off workers in these trying times. This "best" advice is to turn to AI assistants like Copilot and ChatGPT for emotional support and to reduce cognitive load.

name a single anarchist country ... you can't

Neoliberalism even conquered the soviet union and the CCP isnt far behind.

tankies always lose to neoliberal freedom

in reply to Carl N. Yon

yeah. because countries arent anarchist, communities are. Anarchism explicitly rejects state power. But large parts of the Chiapas region in Mexico and Rojava region in Syria are community governed according to anarchist principles.
